Old School J Body coilovers?

[nineteen88ga]

I don't know if it would work, but some of the N body and J body suspension parts are the same. So I don't even know if there is anything availalbe but does anyone know if they make a coilover kit for the older (pre 95) body styleJ's?

I do not know about the fitment, or your particular application, but I remember someone tried em back in the day on a 92-95. Apparently it worked but even on the highest setting the car was slammed and had rubbing issues.

Ive heard the same and the same for these coil-overs for the 99+ GAs. Ive seen a few places selling them for the Grand Am and heard that they actually will cause the car to be so low it drags the under body.

The only coil overs I've seen are from Mantapart.com...$1500 for them too. yuck... I was thinking about having my local heavy duty spring shop see if there is anything to do to the eibachs..maybe cut a coil or 2 off them, but I don't wantto "chonzo" it up. I'd rather spend the $1500 and have it done right (although I will have to redo my audio system in order to do the coilovers...sub box is in the way for the rear strut tower brace that will be needed according to mantapart because the Strut tower will then become "load bearing points"
